Implement `IntoIterator` for `Vec`, `Vec`'s `IntoIter` type, as well as
`Iterator` for `IntoIter`.

`Vec::into_iter` disassembles the `Vec` into its raw parts; additionally,
`IntoIter` keeps track of a separate pointer, which is incremented
correspondingsly as the iterator advances, while the length, or the count
of elements, is decremented.

This also means that `IntoIter` takes the ownership of the backing
buffer and is responsible to drop the remaining elements and free the
backing buffer, if it's dropped.

Is this ok for ZST?

Yes, for ZST `self.cap` is always zero.
